Grewks Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 Sunderland fans are unbelievably deluded. You only had to listen to their views on talksport about norwich pre-match yesterday and how none of their players would get in their squad either...despite dismantling them 3-1. They're a side full of rejects.....pantillimon, jones, kaboul, matthews, pva, coates, larsson, rodwell.....they have one of the 3 worst squads in the league, only bournemouth and arguably norwich are worse.

Dan LCFC Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 Sunderland have no right to call anyone lucky ever again after their win over Everton last season. The scabbiest win I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEGGSY Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 Someone on that Sunderland forum saying not one Leicester player would get in their squad It's incredible isn't it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFox Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 could understand them saying that just off names on the team sheet and not having seen our players play but four or five of them completely annihilated their team literally 8 days ago. could imagine an armchair fan saying "riyad mar what?" or something but when you've seen him at his best just last week trying to pretend you don't think he's better than seb larsson is unreal.

Webbo Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 I'm glad that we've not got a sad obsession with Sunderland like they apparently have with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 I'm glad that we've not got a sad obsession with Sunderland like they apparently have with us. It's just a Sunderland forum, not Sunderland per se. I think we all know that they're not representative of the fanbase on the whole. And admittedly, it's a pretty good laugh. If it weren't for a handful of Foxes fans spoiling it for the rest of us on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleckneymike Posted 16 August 2015 Share Posted 16 August 2015 Brilliant cartoon in the Guardian covering the opening week of the Premiership. Vardy gets a mention of sorts. The pay off on the Cech joke is priceless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey O'Neil Posted 17 August 2015 Share Posted 17 August 2015 (edited) Fair play to the West Ham blogger. I could listen to opposition fans like that all day long when they're sensible like him and his mate. There's also nothing wrong with his optimism pre match either. First home match of the season = exciting times!! Edited 17 August 2015 by Mickey O'Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnaldo Posted 17 August 2015 Share Posted 17 August 2015 So our head of scouting is now at Spurs and isn't Steve Walsh? Head of 'technical scouting' so maybe in a branch under Steve Walsh? Either way it sounds quite fortunate, needed a back up RM, booted up the stats database/FM, found a decent Ligue 2 player and stuck £350k on it. And thank fvck we did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Posted 17 August 2015 Share Posted 17 August 2015 So our head of scouting is now at Spurs and isn't Steve Walsh? No, if you read all the articles on Sky about scouting they were written by him and he explained the way the scouting worked. Walsh headed it up.

TJB-fox Posted 17 August 2015 Share Posted 17 August 2015 So many teams I didn't give a shit about before we got promoted, Villa/Sunderland mainly. Now, utterly despise them and hope they rot in the championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonnieTodger Posted 17 August 2015 Share Posted 17 August 2015 Jesus, what a useless bunch they are. Favourite quote was: "Hope they go down purely because of that unfunny crisp nonce Gary 'banter' Linekar."

Sunbury Fox Posted 18 August 2015 Share Posted 18 August 2015 When asked who looks the best new signing so far in the Prem on Monday Night Football, Gary Neville said Okazaki! Said both he and Leicester in general had "really caught his eye". Then did a bit of analysis about why he likes Okazaki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
